Annapolis Green is having our very own historic "tea party," in our own local way, by holding Green Drinks -- sponsored by Historic Annapolis -- in the historic 77 Main Street Warehouse now occupied by Capital Teas.
We like to think that November is for locals... with the annual peek into our fabulous homes that is Annapolis by Candlelight the first weekend and concluding with the Small Business Saturday on the last weekend.

A couple more things about Green Drinks...
Since the LED Wine Glasses were such a hit at the Green Drinks Extra at the boat show, -- thanks to another local business,
Ocra Green Marine -- we'll be offering them for sale again on Tuesday! If you bought one last time, please bring it with you.
Let's light up with the night with our drinks! And follow the luminaries to Green Drinks!Don't forget that the Ego Alley bulkhead is under construction so there may be congestion and parking issues. This would be a great time to walk to our event or park further out and take the Circulator.
The boat shows are over, the visitors are largely gone. Let's celebrate sustainability in our own town. Come meet one new person and learn one new thing!
